Bartlett Pear trees grow anywhere from 12 to 20 feet tall and wide at maturity. Plant about 8 feet from your home and at least 15 feet from other pear trees to give your Bartlett Pear tree plenty of room to grow.
Bartlett Pear Trees are easy to grow and require minimal care once established. Pear trees prefer full sun and are adaptable to any moist, well-drained soil. Fertilize when planting and in spring with a balanced, slow release fertilizer like the one we carry here at The Planting Tree. Prune when dormant for best results.
Harvest fruit in late August to early September. Bartlett pears actually ripen after being picked. If left on the tree too long your pear may become mushy and mealy. When ready for picking the pear's stem will break away from the branch easily.
Bartlett Pear trees are self-fertile. However they perform best when planted with another variety. D'Anjou and Bosc are good pollinators for Bartlett.
